I too need to go to the Howgills. Look great, and the snow makes them seem much bigger.

Glad to have been of service. It’s why I share stuff like this. With the Lake District nearby, I cannot see the Howgills filling up and I hope that they’ll remain an escape for those of us wanting a quieter day.

Thanks for the info John. I’ve starred this post in Google Reader. No excuse for not visiting these hills now!
